Almost 200 families still displaced after water main break
Description

About 190 families displaced by last week’s water main break in Southwest Detroit are still in hotels as repairs and cleanup continues. City officials say repairs to the most-damaged homes should be completed within the next six weeks. Plus, the nonprofit Michigan Immigrant Rights Center is applauding the Trump administration's decision to rescind a freeze on funding that pays for attorneys to represent unaccompanied migrant children.
